    I have said this many times: internet memes only helped with radicalizing people, but offered none of the tools needed to help them see where they might overcome the problems.

    Therefore you end up with a whole bunch of radicalized people who are increasingly depressed and pessimistic about the world because they literally don’t have the tools to analyze the current state of affairs, let alone come up with solutions.

    Only reading theory can solve that. Read your Marx, Lenin, Gramsci and Mao. That’s the only way forward.

      theory without praxis just gets you the disco elysium quote

      0.000% of Communism has been built. Evil child-murdering billionaires still rule the world with a shit-eating grin. All he has managed to do is make himself sad. He is starting to suspect Kras Mazov Karl Marx fucked him over personally with his socio-economic theory.

      Not entirely true. See a CEO and his family, no one saw anything.

      Protest in the homes of boardmembers.

          Only bootlickers care what the elites protectors think instead of action.

            Getting yourself imprisoned or killed while functionally achieving nothing that actually changes the system does absolutely nothing except remove yourself from the next 30+ years of value you could be providing to organising.

            We call it fedposting because it’s the kind of shit feds say because it benefits them by removing radicals from society.

            Thus: fedposting

            Join an org and put the work in. When the appropriate requirements are met they will act, but they will never be met without people putting in the effort. Individual action sounds tempting and exciting, but it’s not going to change anything. It is adventurism.

        that’s pretty adventurist, that’s how you end up like Alexander Ulyanov, you should aim to end up like his brother
